Superior design characteristics ensure Bridgeport 40-taper spindle GX-Series vertical machining centers deliver many years of accurate and reliable machining performance.
These VMCs include a stiff and thermally-stable spindle, a rigid C-frame fixed column design, and fixed pre-tensioned double-nut ball screws on all axes. The unique Bridgeport-designed linear guide and guide truck configuration provides added stiffness, damping and surface contact area. Unit is configured with three guideways and five guide trucks on both the X- and Y-axis; two guideways and six guide trucks on the Z-axis.

The Bridgeport GX 480 VMC machine features fast rapid rates, high axis and spindle acceleration/deceleration, and a powerful Fanuc control packed with standard features. From job-shop type work to high production manufacturing the GX 480 machine simply outperforms the average machine in its class. With its heavy duty cast iron construction, 4,806lb/2180kg machine weight, 60.23/1530mm x 87.08/2212mm foot print, X-18.9/480mm Y-15.75/400mm Z-16.93/430mm axis travels23.6/600mm x 15.75/400mm work table 1410 ipm/36mm/min rapids, 40 taper 10,000 rpm spindle, 10 hp/7.5Kw, 33 ft-lb/47Nm spindle torque, 20 station Swing Arm ATC or 16 tool carousel type ATC, and manual pulse generator (MPG), makes this competitively priced machine best in class.
The Bridgeport GX 300 is designed and built for a production environment. These machines can literally overlap one another to better utilize valuable floor space and to promote cell manufacturing. The unique design provides service and operator interface to only the front or back of the machines. This design allows the machines to be stacked in a line side by side since there is no need to access the sides of the machines.
Don’t let the small footprint fool you as the GX 300 packs a powerful punch. The spindle torque and horsepower is a unique feature of this machine when compared to other small footprint machines. With 20 horsepower and 99 ft-lbs of torque the GX 300 is able to provide a solution for the aerospace, medical, defense, 3C, automotive, and other industries, requiring high-value, complex parts from difficult to machine materials.
